Sarah Foster, 28, saved from car crash thanks to 38JJ boobs

Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow

28-year-old Sarah Foster has a lot to thank her (naturally) massive boobs for, because they, quite literally, saved her life.

Sarah and her partner Marie were on their way to a christening in their car with their children last summer when they decided to pull over in a lay-by so Sarah could smoke a cigarette and make a phone call. But out of nowhere, a Mini Cooper collided into the central reservation their car was parked by, slamming into an unsuspecting Sarah. But despite the impact (Sarah's clothes and shoes were ripped off on impact) incredibly, she rolled over the windshield and actually bounced off the car – without breaking a single bone.

Medics later explained that Sarah's breasts had essentially acted as 'airbags', protecting her from potentially fatal damage. "I hit the windscreen and heard the smash," she recalls. "My boobs hit it [the windscreen] so hard it just smashed." But despite the speed the vehicle was travelling at, Sarah's injuries were minimal – she suffered from just bruising and damage knee ligament damage.

The timing was pretty amazing too – Sarah had actually booked an appointment to discuss a breast reduction just days before the crash. Unsurprisingly, she says she's now happy to stay as nature intended.
